Welcome

Bouligan: a pétanque player who loves the game in its infinite variety and who does not conform to rules that prevent enjoyment of the sport. Bouligans love the game as it was invented back in 1910 France, played in city squares of Marseilles. Play and have fun.

At Jamison Square we have the same atmosphere, the trees, the uneven ground, the spectators and occasionally the sun too. Come and play and have fun. Play is held twice a week on non raining days, Wednesdays after 4 pm until dark in the summer, and Saturday mornings from 10 am until lunch or later. Play is open to the young, the old and is strictly non-discriminatory.
